Patient's question:
In the past month, the child has been having nightmares frequently. When sleeping in bed, they sometimes stand up, walk around the bed, and cry, speaking a lot of words for about three or four minutes. Then, when they wake up from the nightmare, they go to the bathroom to urinate and can sleep until morning. What department should we take them to for this condition?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is that children may cry and talk in their sleep during deep sleep. I personally suspect it could be a type of sleep disorder, and I recommend going to the local hospital's mental health department for a routine polygraphic sleep monitoring test. You can also go to the sleep department for examination and treatment. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine methods for treatment, which will be more effective. In addition, if the child plays too much before bed or eats too full, it can also lead to this situation.
